I do my fair share of bank fishing. It’s quick, it’s easy, unlike loading unloading a kayak and dealing with boat ramp madness.

 

I have 2 kinds of trips I take. A local pond or a river and canal walking trail is one or a hike to some secluded river fishing areas.

 

for the pond and canal trail I take either 1 spinning or a spinning and baitcasting setup or two. I hate cutting and re-tying often as it wastes line when you carry one setup so most of the time I take 2 set ups for a 2-3 hour trip. My tackle and tools are in a Gamakatsu shoulder bag that I do not have to take off to cast. It rests at my hip and swing around to my front for easy access. I can get 2 3500 boxes in it, first aid kit, bug spray, sunscreen, pliers, multi-tool, scale, knife, scissors and fish grips.

 

For hike and fish I carry a spinning and baitcasting setup. The bag I take is a Samurai Tactical Iwashi sling bag. It fits everything my Gamakatsu bag does plus a 3700 size box, and some extra tools including, hook remover, water bottle, snacks, rod stakes and a flexible cutting board. These trips are usually 4-6 hours so I like to have options.
